Both offer smart connectivity, a spin speed of 1400 RPM, and front loading, but the technical differences between the two models are substantial and lead to very different purchasing choices.

The Samsung WW11DG6B85LH/U3 is positioned in the mid-high range due to its superior technological features. The drum capacity is 11 kg, made possible by proprietary SpaceMax technology, which maximizes the internal volume while maintaining standard external dimensions (60 x 85 x 60 cm). The motor is a Digital Inverter, covered by a 20-year warranty, quiet and highly energy-efficient. The declared energy class achieves efficiency up to 10% better than class A, thanks to the integrated AI Energy Mode in the SmartThings app, which also allows for real-time consumption monitoring and estimating the impact on bills.

On the washing technology front, it stands out for its AI Ecobubble, which generates micro-bubbles capable of removing up to 24% more dirt even at low temperatures, with 70% energy savings compared to hot washes and a 45.5% better fabric protection. The AI Wash function automatically detects the weight and softness of fabrics, adjusting water, detergent, soaking times and spin speed. We also have automatic detergent dosing, hygienizing steam, and integrated Wi-Fi.

Candy Washing Machine 10 Kg 1400 RPM, Class B, NFC Smart Touch, 16 Programs, Mix Power System, Delay Start, Front Loading, AxLxP 85 x 60 x 57.8 cm

The Candy CS 14102DW4/1-S, on the other hand, is positioned in the mid-range segment. In this case, the capacity is 10 kg with a drum volume of 62 liters. The dimensions are slightly more compact in depth: 60 x 85 x 57.8 cm, a significant advantage for installations in smaller spaces. The energy class is B, with a weighted consumption of 59 kWh every 100 cycles and a water consumption of 51 liters per cycle. The motor is a traditional AC type, and connectivity does not occur via Wi-Fi but via NFC (Near Field Communication), requiring the physical proximity of a smartphone to the machine for data exchange; through the simply-Fi app, it is possible to download new programs and receive notifications.

From an energy performance perspective, Samsung stands out for its ability to operate in a highly efficient mode due to the integrated artificial intelligence, while Candy offers competitive consumption figures for its price range, with declared weighted values that are modest. The cycle duration at full load on the Candy is about 3 hours and 59 minutes for the standard program, while the Samsung with Super Speed can complete a daily wash in just 39 minutes.
